I just wondered in Win 7 ult is no longer an option on new laptops? The Krypton only offered home or win 8 in conf today.
Thanks |

As far as windows is concerned it isn't going away.
Win8.1 is probably being used for the touch screen. I checked the lvl 3 krypton and you can change the OS to Win7 pro but I didn't see the ultimate version. Don't get home premium as it has a short lifespan. |

Vanquish II Ultimate.
I was laying in bed looking up at the stars and wondered "where is my ceiling?" |

Maybe DS will confirm on here. I checked Krypt and Behemoth configs and they only offer win 8 or win 7 home now.

I think there was some recent change to OEM sales of Windows 7 that might be affecting availability, but DS would need to confirm. I think they stopped the Anytime Upgrades last year. The push to Windows 8.1 is in nearly full effect from MS now. And Windows 10 is due this year, I believe.
